Mumbai- As one of India’s most prominent businesswomen, Isha Ambani Piramal is known to break barriers. The CEO of Reliance Jio Infocomm took to normalizing assisted pregnancy by revealing how she conceived twins through IVF. In an interview with a leading fashion magazine, the mother-of-two candidly shared her family’s experience with in-vitro fertilization. Coming from a lineage where her mother Nita Ambani also had twins via the same process, Isha believes modern technology should be embraced to fulfill desires of parenthood. “I want to vocalize that my children were conceived through IVF to help remove the stigma around it,” stated the business leader. Fertility issues are perceived to be taboo in traditional Indian society, dissuading many from publicly acknowledging treatments. Isha’s revelation aims to inspire acceptance and support for those struggling with infertility. Experts say the stigma arises from lack of discussion on such sensitive topics. “Infertility is very common but still a taboo subject. We need to normalize it like other medical conditions,” quotes a veteran IVF specialist from Mumbai. Hormonal imbalances during the procedure also leave women emotionally vulnerable, emphasizing the need for compassion from loved ones. While multiple births through IVF do occur, clinics take precautions to minimize risk factors for mother and babies. Most patients opting for a single embryo transfer experience healthy deliveries. Advanced age or failed previous attempts may require multiple in this modern age of assisted reproduction. Isha Ambani’s bold move could help lift the unnecessary secrecy around it.
